Optimizer and Configuration for Available Date for In-House Order

[Former Member]

Hi

I am in trouble about Optimizer and Order Date.(Avail/Req Date)

[What I want to do]
After executing Optimizer, Order date for in house should be middle of the Month.
# Time Bucket is Month

[Current situation and Configuration]
Currently the order date is always middle of the month. (eg. 15th June 2013)

Configuration

1.SNP Optimization Profile
Bucket Offset During Production: 0.5
Bucket Offset During Shipment: 0.5

2.Product master/ Lot Size Tab
  Period Factor:0.5
  #It seems this value is nothing to do with Optimizer
   This is only for Heuristic.

Someone, please advice me if you know other neccesarry configuration.

Regards
Ryo

Hi,

You can also maintain bucket offset in PDS/PPM. If its maintained there then value from optimizer profile will be ignored.

I think this configuration is sufficient to create receipts in the middle of the month.

Experts, please add in if I am missing something.
